Which browser for viewing HD clips

Bu11dog

Hi All,

Happy Holiday!

I am getting complains from clients that when they try to view the HD clips, the video lags really bad. It is not viewable.

Personally it is not a issue for myself, I use Firefox with Quicktime plugin, all HD clips work fine for me.

I know 99% of my clients use Internet Explorer. How can I make sure they can view HD clips without forcing them to change browser?

Thanks.

it's not the browser necessarily - it's the computer and the horsepower too. A weak computer could have trouble. If they are on dialup or slow dsl or evdo, that could be the issue, too.

I run HD Vids on all manner of windows, with IE and Firefox, On my Macbook Pro, in a Windows 7 Virtual Machine, with 2gb RAM, and running ie8, a full 1080p HD is a little jerky. But then again, it won't also display on my 1280x800 monitor At normal size for my monitor, it plays great in IE8 on Win7 on my little laptop:

now try this, it's full 1080p:

Big difference for plenty of folks. On my Desktop system, that video plays lusciously.
